Over-watering is one of the most common forms of injury to trees whether by unmonitored sprinkler systems or by lack of proper drainage. When the soil around the root system fails to dry, rotting of tree roots can occur.
This damage weakens the tree, and allows opportunistic diseases to attack and sometimes kill the tree. As we work with you, we will teach you the correct method of watering your trees.
We may also recommend correcting poor drainage conditions that allow a tree to sit in soggy or saturated soil.
